Hello
Could someone tell me what the right tool is to remove this cassette? It’s from a Schwinn Marshall E-bike I got for free.

That’s a freewheel, not a cassette, so you’d need a Freewheel removal tool. E.g. Park Tool FR-1.3 (that’s a standard recommendation but I’m still using the random freewheel removal tool I got off eBay/Amazon – if you do this, ensure the splines look visually similar to the Park Tool fr-1.3 at least, or if you’re unsure, comment here and someone will let you know.)
First, terminology: this is a freewheel, not a cassette. If you go looking for videos on how to do this, this distinction will be important.
Now, for removal: there are some splines just around the axle. They look like Shimano-compatible freewheel splines. This is the tool I’d recommend: https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/freewheel-remover-fr-1-3
